THE ST. JOHNS GAME
This is the first time that the St.
Johns and Kiski teams have met in
an athletic contest in the history of
the schools. The game came about
through a desire on the part of the
managements of both schools to compare
the merits of eastern and western
scholastic football. Kiskl is a
recognized leader among the eastern
schools, while St. Johns occupies a
simlar position among the western
schools. Both are noted for their manly
sportsmanship.
A word about St. Johns may not be
out of place here. The school was established
by its present head master,
Dr. S. T. 811,ytlle, in 1884. Two years
later it became a military academy,
and for some years it has ranked as
an honor school on the roll of the U.
S. Army authorities. The enrollment
of the school last year was 420.
St. Johns is situated in the beautiful
lake region of Wisconsin, three
hours' ride from Chicago. It is Ei>iscopal
in its religious life, although it
draws many boys from al1 denominations
in to its school life.
As we go to press we have not
learned much about the record of this
year's team, but we are assured by
the president of the school that we
will have to go some to win.
Our first object must be to display
the best of sportsmanship, both on
and off the field. We must show our
western friends that hospitality did
not originate west of Chicago. We all
hope that this game may become an
annual affair and we are going to do
everything in our power to make the
soldier boys feel at home except when
we get them out on that football field.
Then watch us go.
The game will begin at two thirty
on November 22. The officials will be
Eugene Dowling, Referee; Dex Very,
Umpire, and .i\lr. Hewitt, Head Linesman.
SOME OLD KISKI MEN
F. J, SCHWAB
'14, '15, '16, '17.
Dutch has a record at Kiski that
can't be surpassed. There may be
many fellows on the books that have
a greater number of athletic achievements
to their credit or may have
stood higher in their work than did
Dutch. but for steadiness, fighting pep
and real spirit his record is one to be
looked up to and admired. Dutch
played on the varsity football team
for four years and was Captain during
'16 and '17. He was the main
stay of the Gym team the same four
years, he played outfield and pitched
when needed for the baseball team
every year that he was here. In studies
his record only serves to increase
our admiration and respect for this
real Klski product. Dutch had to
study and study hard for everything
he obtained, so he immediately proceeded
to study and in testimony of
the fact that he did study, and hard,
let it be said that he stood very high
in all his classes and that in the
Trig. finals he pulled down a hundred.
Such men as Dutch not only bring
honors to their schools, but to themselves
as well. Dutch is now attending
Lafayette and from all reports
is repeating his Kiski record
there.
THOMAS V. HOLLERAN
'16, '17, '18, '19
The record that Tommy left behind
him looks more like a menu than a
record, but every bit of it's true and
he worked hard for every item on it.
Tommy began his career at Kiskl
the spring term of 'lo and he wasn't
here a week until he had a job on the
varsity baseball team; after vacation
he came back and went out for football
for the first time in his life. He
worked hard for the team and when
he had made the team he just kept on
working, as he did in anything he
ever tackled; the following year he
did exactly the same thing, except that
he was on the first team from the beginning;
and (between you and me)
a little more than an eleventh of that
championship team was tied up in that
little bundle labeled T. V. Holleran.
What I started out to tell you was
that Irish; when football season was
over, started out for basketball;
again, for the first time in his life; be·
cause he had too much pep and spirit
to sit around and look pleasant when
he thought that he might be of some
help to the school if he were out there
on that floor working. He worked and
although he played on the Varsity

ALUMNI
During Kiski's thirty-three years of
experience she has turned oul some
very successful men. The different
graduating classes have gone out of
Kisl,i determined to mal,e good. They
have not only determined to make
good. They have "orked until they
have succeeded. '.rhey have entered
every walk of !He.
If you take our honor roll, for in·
stance, out of five hundred or more
Service men there was probably
eighty percent of them officers. We
have with us, al the date of this wril·
ing, one of the principals of Kiski and
an alumnus of 1905 who entered the
service at the outbreak of the war and
served in France as a Captain of the
Artillery.
Every alumnus is perfectly familiar
with the high class athletic teams
which Kiski has always been noted
for. Her teams are noted for their
strength, physically, morally and for
their clean playing. '
As one pages through the daily
newspapers he is almost certain of
seeing the name of some alumnus, who
has played on his Alma Mater team,
playing with some ot the noted team:;
of the country. '!'his all goe::; to show
that the Alumn􀈻 ol Kiski not only
make good in their special line of
business, but also in their athletic
walk through college.
The writer has yet to see or talk
with an alumnus ,,ho does not praise
the great school of Kiski and does
not "ish he \\ ere back with the bunch.
So let every student or ow· Kiski
keep this standard up. Ii we do, the
large body or alumni who come back
to visit us each year will not be dis·
appointed in then· most welcome
visits.
What can YOU do to help make
their visits worth while?
THIS ISSUE
In this issue we are starting a series
of writeups of old Alumni who have
done Kiski a great deal of good and
have distinguished themselves since
leaving our fai r school.
Beginning with this issue we have
two of Kiski's greatest athletes, i. e.
Frank J. Schwab and Thomas V. Holleran.
Kiski wishes them all the best of
luck and great success.

MON•EY IS NOT ALL
Money is the currency of conven·
ience. Money is the cause of more
misery than we think.
Many poor working people who are
fortunate enough to have good jobs
sometimes feel despondent, blue and
discouraged. '.rhey get tired of being
compelled to work. This is natural,
perfectly natural.
But a bigger punishment ls to be
born rich and have no work to do.
The happiest human that I know of
works. 'fhe most miserable ind!·
viduals on earth have money in carload
lots.
To the working girl who is discouraged,
let me relate a little lire-story:
There was a daughter of the rich,
born unde r protest. She was fed on
a Thermos, and sentenced each day
to a sun parlor, where she plaved with
toys and listened to a foreign-born, fema
le tutor. After a time they sent her
away to a far-off school. She was
dressed like a doll. Eventually the
parents gave her a debut; eligible
young men were invited to the parlors,
and the young girl was marched, like
a handsome colt, past the admiring
audience. It was a horse show.
Then the bids were opened and the
girl was married. In a couple of yeurs
there were a couple of children. and
the untrained mother tried to raise
these children and make a home. But
she failed. Her husband failed in his
effor1 s to help her. They went broke
together.
Result, wifey goes to Reno, children
are sent to grandpapa and grandmama,
and in time a beautiful Broadway
chorus receive an interesting recruit
and the world registers another tragedy.-
Exchange.
WHAT IS A FRIEND?
Have you a true knowledge of thi􀈼
question: What ls a friend?
Should someone ask you, "Who is a
friend?'• you would have a ready an·
swer.
A friend is the individual that understands
your vicious and vain traits
-who appreciates your sincerity and
service-who praises you in public and
condemns you in private.
A friend will listen to you and your
troubles. He will sympathize with
you, sing with you, weep witb. you and
work with you. Sometimes he will
work for you.
With a friend, you do not have to be
on dress parade. You can be natural
and your friend wlll tolerate you. He
may like you after all this.
I have known men to be my friends
who did not llke me. They are won·
derfully big men.
A friend will let you be yourself.
And now that I have suggested a
few definitions of a friend, let me ask
you: How many friends have you?Exchange.
LIFE
Life is full of harmonies. The trouble
is, most of us hit the strings on
the harp with our clenched fist and
then expect to hear sentimental music
like that of "La Tosca." But the steel
strings are true to their calling, and
they send Into our souls some tragedy
like the mad scene of "Lucia."Exchange.

KISKI, 12; W. VA. SCRUBS, 0
Kiski auspielously pried off the lid
of its football season on September
27, 1919, by defeating the powerful
West VJrginia Reserves' twelve to
nothing. The team had been making
a wonderful showing against the
mu􀆳 touted Varsity team at the University.
· The strength of the Reserves
may be realized when Coach McIntyre
of West Va. picked out the second
best team from a squad of fifty men,
all of whom had a good chance for a
berth on the Varsity, to come to Saltsburg
to oppose Kiski.
The game was played on a hot,
sultry day with little or no wind blowing
and this had a very telling effect
on 'w. Va. Before five minutes of
the game had elapsed, several of the
"big boys" on W. Va.'s line, were
blowing profusely, and this together
with the fact that Kiski was concentrating
her attack on the line,
made the famed defense of West
Virginia crumble. Consequently the
combination of the weather and the
wonderful line playing of Coach
Marks' men, proved the undoing of
the visiting eleven.
In the first half, W. Va. had the
ball on their 25 yard line and a man
attempted an end run, Lytle fumblecl
the pass from center and the ever
alert Rankin got the ball and carried
it down the gridiron for a touchdown,
the first score of the game and of
the 1919-2 O season. The goal was
missed and the half ended Kiski 6,
W. Va. O.
In the second half through the
marvelous running of Tindall and
Lawrence and the reckless line
plunging of Amos, the pigskin was
worked to the W. Va. 35 yard line.
On an off tackle play Tindall carried
the ball across the goal for the
second touchdown. Amos again
failed to kick the goal and the game
ended, score Kiskl 12, W. Va. 0.
The entire Kiski team played excellent
football and seemed to be In
midseason form, this all being due
to Coach Marks' exactness. Conti
and Verderber played a wonderful
defensive game while the honor for
the offensive work goes to Tindall
and Amos. Emsaetler, the W. Va.
center starred for the Reserves, due
to his gameness and perseverance.

KISKI WALLOPS CARNEGIE TECH FRESHMEN
On Saturday, November 1st, the
Carnegie Tech Freshmen fell before
the superior onslaught of our boys on
Kiski Field, the game being played in
a sea of mud during a continuous drizzle.
When the final wh;stle blew and
the players wigglf'd out of the mud,
the score stood Kiski 25, Carnegie
Plebes 0.
It was evident from the beginning
that the visitors, who had previously
held the Indiana Normal team to a
0-0 tie, were no match for the husky
and well-drilled Kiski boys. Only the
fact that the Tech. Fresh. fought hard
and gamely, and followed the ball like
a hawk, kept them from being
trimmed by a much greater score.
Time and again the Kiski lads fumbled
the slippery ball within the very
shadow of Tech's goal JJ-Osts, and Tech
would recover, allowing them to kick
out of the danger zone for the moment.
On one occasion McLaughlin
bled the ball behind Tech's goal
one of their players falling on
ball for a touch:ack.
,carting the game -Captain Alle-
,·and won the toss, and Tech kickedoff
to Kiski on her 10 yard line. From
there line plunges in which Amos featured,
carried the ball lo Tech's 40 yard
line. On on off-tackle play, McLaughlin
made a pretty 40 yard run through
the entire opposing team for the first
touchdown. McLaughlin made another
touchdown on a line plunge in the second
period. Amos made the third
score on a line plunge in the final
period after McLaughlin had made a
30 yard run to the eight yard line.
Hardie, starting his first game at fullback
this year, came through with a
sensational 50 yard run for the last
touchdown.
The entire Kiski team played a
great game despite the frequent fumbling,
but the work of McLaughlin.
Clees, Hardie, Gray and Verderber
stood out prominently. During the last
ten minutes of play Coach Marks sent
in nearly a full team of substitutes.

in every way, with Christy, Christoff

Kiski, 35
New Kensington, 0
On Saturday the 18th, the New
Kensington Sterlings journeyed to
Saltsburg to do battle with our boys
on Kiski field. But battle hard as
they would, the best they could do
was to come out on the short end of
a 3 5-0 score.
Kiski broke into the scoring soon
after the first couple of minutes of
play. Line smashes by Amos and
Tindall carried the ball from midfield
to the four yard line, from there
Amos carried it over. Tindall
kicked goal.
After that New Kensington did not
have a chance, Kiski piling up a score
of 29 in the first half. Practically a
new team of substitutes went in for
Kiski in the second half, and while
they were not so well drilled as the
regulars in the signals, they outplayed
the visitors, scoring 6 points
to nothing.
Amos, our big fullback, could not
be stopped through the line, and was
a veritable bear on the defense.
McLaughlin ran the team well at
quarterback, and also pulled oft
several long runs. He is big, fast,
and shifty on his feet, malting him a
hard man to tackle. Every man in
the lineup played a good game.
Captain Wilcox starred for Ne,v

Owing to the open date on our

The largest and best dance of the
school year, up to the present time,
was held in the gym on Saturday
night, November 1.
The first thing on the programme
was a Cake-Walk by the smaller boys
of Kiski, all of whom were dressed as
m!strel!f.
The dancing started at nine o'clock
and continued until eleven, when refreshments
were served.
The party ended at twelve o'clock,
closing a most enjoyable evening.
The following girls were present:
The Misses Gladys and Ella May Wilson,
Misses Miller, Coggins and Newmire,
of "P. C. W.'' Misses Jones and
Winnett, of Belle Vernon, Misses
Forbes and Winnekie, of Salsburg,
Miss Alice Calvert, of Charleroi and

"THE RESCUE"
I took a dip in the ocean
On the first of last July
I spent my time a-floatin'
Until I heard a sigh.
I looked down the water
A girl was in distress
I swam dawn and caught her
By the bottom of her dress.
She told me she was drowning,
I said, "I don't think so,"
But saw that she was frowning
To think that I'd say "No.''

there and fought. His efforts were
not without result for the 'next year

in '18 was Captain of the team.
Irish made the track teams '15 anrl
'16, captaining that of '16. He took
his team to the annual W. & J. Meet
and brought them back plus the Cup
which was due largely to Tommv'􀃸
efforts. With the result of the meet
hinging on the outcome of the relav
race and with his opponent twelve
yards in the lead, he tagged his team
mate and started. He ran as if mad
and fel! over the tape two yards in
advance of his opponent.
Baseball was Tommy's Middle
Name, and he had been playing it
with his Oakland cronies ever since
he had taken off short dresses and he
felt right at home on the diamond
making the first team for four years'.
Besides all this he was on the Honor
Roll, the Dramatic Club. and the
Glee Club. He was president of the
class of '18. We wish him luck and
success at Pitt.

Why )Ve Win.
You know Captain Allabrand,
Kiski's big back?
He keeps fight in the team
And stops hostile attack.
How about Tindall
That Slippery right half,
He plays a slick game
And I'll tell you he's fast.
And just look at Amos
That great birr left half,
Who comes out of each scrimmage
With a man-eating laugh.
And talk about Verderber
That big hefty cuss;
He can stop anything
From a fly to a bus.
Say there's center Austin
As hard as boiled owl,
He knocks them around
With a whoop and a howl.
Good night, there's McLaughlin,
He's as fast as a draker.
And tears through those men
Just like they were paper.
And now loolr at Rankin
That famous right end,
How he grabs that foot-ball
With a twist and a bend.
Sweet Daddy, there's Gray,
That enormous right tackle,
Who ploughs through that team
With a yell and a squackle.
Oh see Dick Mulvihill,
That big husky player
When they see him coming
They all say a prayer.
My gosh, glance at Conti,
He's tough as a plank,
And he's rushing right through them,
He's as good as a tank.
Say, boys, there is Clees
And he's playing right guard
Whenever he's started
There is no retard.
So speaking of players
We're sure we've the best
And just lead the way boys
Our team does the rest.

Ponies, 6; Saltsburô€€¥, 0
On Friday, October 18, the Kiskl
Ponies opened their football season
by defeating the Saltsburg High
School team by the score 6 to 0.
This game proved to be of great Interest
from start to finish and furnished
fine sport for the large crowd
of spectators present. The Saltsburg
team proved to be formidable opponents
and in the first half, due to the
great defensive work of both
teams, no score was made by either
ham.
In the second half, however, the
superior strength of Kiski began to
d this proved the undoing or
ltsburg team. Kiski worked
1 down the field to the Salts-
• .-g 9 yard line. Forsythe then
carried the ball across the line for a
touchdown. Kislci kicked off and
the game ended with the ball o n
Kiski's 2 0 yard line.

A Canadian Sacrifice
The golden s􀄄 was just sinking in
the west and oasting a ray of brilliant
colors over the Saskatchewan wheat
fields. The wheat stalks swayed in
the slight breeze like a sea. On the
doorstep of a cabin sat Jobn Steele,
pipe iq hand, with a contented look
on his' face. As he smoked he could
hear the clatter of dishes and a cheery
,ong within the cabin. Steele bad a
right to be happy. It was his first successful
year in the wheat lands and if.
everything went right he would possess
a bum per crop.
This would be profitable in two
ways. First, he could buy his wife
some of the luxuries she deserved, and
second, his large crop would help to
feed England in her attempt to stop
the Hun.
• • • • •
It was noon the next day. John
Steele had just arrived at the cabin
from his daily grind in the fields when
Roger Burke. government agricultural
expert No. 26, rode up to the door.
"Glad to see you, Burke," said
Steele. "Come in and eat with us."
"I accept the invitation," replied
Burke, as he dismounted. He entered
the cabin and took a chair.
"Florence will be here presently,"
said Steele. "She is picking flowers
for the table."
"Your crop look s good," commented
Burke. "All the others I have seen
are just- the same. That wlieat should
put some kink in old Hindy's line."
"Yes, and Florence will be happy,"
replied the farmer.
Just then Steele's wife entered. She
carried some little yello,v flowers in
her arms, which caused Burke to gaze
at her in astonishment.
"Tho-those flowers," said Burke.
"Where did you get them?"
".Among the wheat," answered the
woman. ".Aren't they pretty?
Burke was speechless. Steele moved
closer to examine the flowers. The
wonder shone in his eyes.
"It can't be,'' he said. He received
no answer.
In a moment Burke broke the silence.
"Steele," he said softly, "you
know what those flowers mean."
"I do," answered the farmer, with a
faint trace of a sad smile.
In two days Burke had burned
Steele's wheat crop to the ground.
-=---.- Nothing 􀄅 was left except the charred
stallcs. Before leaving the expert had
a talk with Steele. .
"It is all right," he said. "The pest
did not spread to the other fields. We
checked it just in time. Your crop
is gone but the others are saved for
England.
"I think I can manage to get through
the winter," said the farmer. "But
Florence will have to wait another
year for her things."
"I will wait fifty years if it will help
England," said the woman, appearing
in the doorway. She carried two
glasses and a jug of wine.
"Here,'' she said, "drink to England
and think no more of me. Next year
we will begin all over."
Burke took a glass. "To England,"
he said.
Steele was tbinlting. He had lost
his whole year's work. He could not
buy his wife what she should have.
Then he thought of England. He
brought the glass closer to his lips.
"To England,'' , he repeated.-Exchange.

Ponies, 12; Blairsville, Hi, 0
The Kiski Ponies made it two
straight on Saturday, October 12,
when they walloped the Blairsville
Tigers to the tune of 24 to 0. The
game was well played and at no time
did either team have it "soft". The
Ponies showed a greater knowledge
of the game than their opponents,
this being due to the careful supervision
of Konold. In all practice
games, rain or shine, Konold coached
the team and this cropped out at the
game on Saturday. .A word should
be said of the running of Dodds and
Forsythe.
Ponies Win Three
Straight
.After a layoff of ten days the Kiskl
Ponies came back strong, and defeated
the strengthened Saltsburg
High team by a score of 12 to 6.
Both teams showing great improvement
since their last meeting. The
only Saltsburg score was made when
Kelly got the ball on a fumble of a
bad pass by Looker running the
length of the field for a touchdown.
The Ponies were unable to score in
the first half, it ended Saltsburg 6,
Ponies 0.
In the second half Kiski got the
ball on a fumble, and scored a touchdown
when Elliott found the holes
on a well executed line plunge. The
goal was missed, and on the second
kick-off of the half Kiski received
the ball. It was worked to the 16
yard line, and Forsythe carried it
across from here. The game ended
here with Kiski on the long end of a
12 to 6 score.
The great improvement in the
Ponies can be attributed to coach
Konold who imparted to the boys the
fruits of his hard earned experience.
The Stars of the game include Redfield,
Donaldson and·Forsythe. Redfield
and Donaldson excelled in the
defense while Forysthe took the
honors of the offense.

With the pretty complexion, so wondrously

And tbac lovely dark hair, so much
like a dream,
And who's big blue eyes with radiance
beam?
That's Marjory!
Just see bow she dances around the

Surely enough to make anyone fall.
Sunda y I saw her down the old lane,
But pardon, old chap, what is her
name?
It's Marjory!
Saw her in swimming on Tuesday last
And say, there's no fish that's in her
class.
The way sbe goes would drive you
insane,
But pardon, old chap, what is her
name?
Only Marjory!
I've never seen such a girl in my life,
And just the kind I'd like for a wife.
She's always smiling and just the
same,
But pardon old chap, what is her
name?
Just Marjory!
I've seen lots of girls on my trips
'round the world,
But none who are there can even compare
With the beautiful girl who is stand·
ing there,

There is a blight that will strike
the fairest flower that you know.
There is trouble for you but thank
heaven it is ahead.
Knowing all this, let's you and I live
to the limit of every hour of happiness.
Let's be square, play fair, smile and
sing.
Then when the clouds come. we will
know from personal experience that
life, after all, has had its full measure
of favors.
l\Iy suggestion is that we both break
loose from ourselves-that we reach
for the moon-that we fill both our
hands· with bright stars-that we let
our souls climb.
And iC you need a little inspiration,
go out and watch the sun go to bed.
See how the c1•imson heavens blush
at the performance.
Stand in the middle of the road and
snort like a colt. Sidestep the things
that have thorns.

Whistle "Bullfrog and the Coon."
Always keep in the Cocoanut Grove
